“You end up chasing the high you imagine, instead of the fulfillment you actually need”
-Fredrick Bussey
Whaaaat?!?! Wow! This is SO true for so many of us!
One of our BIGGEST problems as men, is we have THE WRONG DEFINITION of success and a POOR MEASURING STICK for how we determine whether we are successful.
In this bonus podcast episode, I interview executive leadership coach, speaker, and author of the book Breaking Orbit: Rip Out the Regular by Unearthing the Power Within, Fredrick Douglas Bussey. I had the privilege of interviewing Fredrick during the virtual ELITE MEN Summit event, that I hosted back in December of 2020. In this interview he helps to redefine for us what success REALLY is!
Fredrick is one of the wisest men I know and he drops a TON of knowledge on this interview!
He breaks down why we, as high-achieving men, struggle with being successful in one area such as our business or career, but struggle in other areas of life and end up unfulfilled. He talks about how the ‘Definition of Manhood’ that many of us learn when we are younger is false, and how this false understanding of manhood puts us at great risk for unfulfillment and the overall neglect and poor relationships we see as fathers, husbands, and friends.
Fredrick says we end up “chasing the high we imagine, instead of the fulfillment we need”…SO GOOD, and SO TRUE!
One of my biggest takeaways from this interview was the 3 Laws of Giftedness. You’ve gotta hear his framework for your gifts! It will help you in ALL areas of life! Number 3 was my favorite!
